Re: Sacred Harp is broken in minor keys

[Graham Percival]

I've added this as
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=232

but I suspect it may be quite tricky to implement.  I think that a 
better short-term solution is to define
\minorKey

which sets up the correct noteheads for minor.  You can use this same 
definition for many pieces; see 4.3 Style sheets.  (I think that's the 
right number)

Cheers,
